File Name Set on the Camera Now Can Be Included When Naming Video Saved on External Recorders

When recording video to both the camera's memory card and an Atomos external recorder that has been connected to the camera, the name of the file saved on the external recorder will now include the name of the video file saved on the camera's memory card. Having a common string in both file names makes it easier to link the files when editing the video.

• When starting video recording with a memory card inserted in the camera and [External rec. cntrl (HDMI)] set to [ON] in the video recording menu, the file name of the video to be saved on the memory card is transmitted to the external recorder.
• The file extension will not be transmitted to the external recorder.

• The following Atomos external recorders support the transmission of file names (as of March 2024).

  • Ninja (2023 models)
  • Ninja Ultra
  • Ninja V
  • Ninja V+
  • Shogun (2023 models)
  • Shogun Ultra
  • Shogun Connect

  Some of these products may no longer be available. Contact Atomos to learn more about products that support file-name transmission.

  Some recorders may require an ATOMOS OS upgrade or paid activation of the recorder. Contact Atomos for details.

  Refer to the documentation provided with the external recorder for instructions to set up the external recorder and details on file names saved on it.
